Para Viper and T-72?

[ender098]

Two things to talk about;

1.) HAs anyone found a ROC para-viper in a US Store? Or any Wave 3 figures yet? If so, where (what state what store)?

2.) I was in TRU tonight and saw a new chap mei looking tank that resembles a T-72...it even has external fuel tanks. The only reason I passed was because it has that B.S. electronic sounds feature. I might get it tomorrow....but I need a better look at it.....

What's a T-72?

[The BATman]

It's a Soviet tank model, with a typical oil drum attached to the back. Next to the Hind helicopter, it's one of those Russion military vehicles that has earned a place in Western pop culture. I don't really know why. Did Rambo blow a lot of them up, perhaps ?

Edit: One wikipedia search later, I now know it was also Iraq's main battle tank. Perhaps that's why it's so known.

woah a soviet style tank !! i want one of those can ya snag pics for it to see how she looks?

[The BATman]

I bought the tank last saturday. Now to think of a nice scene to use it in for a picture or two. I'll probably have to wait until the snow is gone though.

I picked up a paraviper here in NYC just a few weeks ago.

TRU : Everett, Wa before Thanksgiving.

Fred Meyer : Bellingham, Wa also before t-day.

I got the sense these were packed with a different wave, not the wave3 we are most familiar with. I didn't bother with them since I already have a few of these guys in blue.

I got a couple of ROC paravipers at walmart in a small town in the Texas panhandle. I have not seen any before or since

I got a ROC Para Viper at Wally world as well here in Denver. Haven't seen one since though. Got it to be the commanding offer of the other three that I had.

Looks like a cool tank.

Me too. Christmas was fun, but I need to recover a little before spending more...
